FREIGHT ARRANGEMENT

Freight arrangement is offered as a service to all our customers via third party Freight Providers and are subject to their terms and costs. Please note much time and effort are put in by PQUIP staff to secure lowest possible freight cost. Customer's own freight arrangement is most welcome and our staff will notify you once your goods are ready to be collected. All goods are picked-up/shipped from our Loganholme address. Freight arrangements through Pharmaquip are dispatched the next working day after the order has been processed. Delivery times will vary depending on your location and is beyond our control. For major cities allow 2-4 working days for delivery, for other areas please allow 5-9 working days. Delivery on weekends is not available.

Depending on the location, we will use local and interstate couriers. In the case of small items we may use Australia Post. With the exception of Australia Post, please note that our couriers CANNOT deliver to a PO Box.

Delivery to a Residential address will incur additional charges by some of our couriers and will be charged to customers retrospectively. To avoid these retrospective charges, please notify us in advance if your premise is a residential address so that the freight cost is correctly calculated.

PLEASE NOTE: Freight providers may charge a re-delivery fee if they fail to deliver in their first attempt due to premises being closed or unattended. These extra charges will be passed on to our customers accordingly.

FREIGHT COSTS

Freight costs are third party cost and are not included in the product cost. Freight costs are quoted on volume measurement per carton i.e. per 0.1 cubic metre (0.1m3) with maximum weight of 20kg/25kg (+GST) depending on the location & based on business premises only. Residential address will incur additional cost by some of our couriers. Please note that order/s may exceed the 0.1m3 in volume and/or the 20kg/25kg in weight. As such, please do contact us for actual freight cost before you price your quote to your customer.
